      ^Yeah I've heard the same on the lighter colors.

      And there's just something that feels right about navy Tricker's

        Don't be dismayed however with the Color 8 option.  Personally, it's my preferred shell color when compared to Ravello and Cigar.  It will take on this beautiful patina after a year of wearing depending on the owner's use.  I've traded some of my ravello/cigar boots for the Color 8.

        Don't even get me started about Black shell.  It is very underrated and doesn't get the spotlight it deserves.  Maybe folks prefer to keep it this way 🙂

          Color 8 is insane.  The depth and how it changes to the light… great stuff.

          It's my favorite shell color that I own (also have black AE dress shoes, and yes black shell is underrated as people basically hate it) But looking to add some variety to the mix with something lighter.  That said I wouldn't be suprised if I ended up still liking color 8 the best after its all said and done.

            Aldens weathered the salty walk today much better than my work trousers…

            wiped em' clean when I got into the office and they were ready to go.

                        Just took delivery of these Alden Shell #8 x Pebble Grain Saddles from Leffot. Here are two piccies:


                        They reminded me a bit of these vintage Alden's:

                                      Crazy how each batch of shells comes out a different shade.  Beautiful stuff.  I'm still waiting on some whiskeys so I have a light pair to mix in with the no 8s

                                          New laces on my Indy's. I'm digging the contrast of the blue.
